It Does Work.

I heard that if you make your bed the first thing in the morning.. that you will have accomplished something... and then the day will start off in a positive light... I believe that..  I have tried to keep with that for the last month or so.. and I do believe it is making a difference... at least a bit of one.. in my attitude. I went so far as making it here in my room at the training facilities, even though the housekeeping staff will probably pull the linen off my bed anyway... Still it's the gesture that counts... I'm pretty sure I'll accomplish a whole lot during this week... I'm in training to be a union steward... I already have an idea of some of it.. but I'm going to keep an open mind and let my ideology be re-written. I should take that to heart with other aspects of my life... but no one is an expert... so who would do the re-writing?  

I had dinner (supper) last night in a local restaurant/bar ...it was crowded, and the food was excellent, but I wasn't very comfortable there.. you could tell people were trolling for whatever they could find... I had a couple of angry balls with my delicious meal... then left soon afterwards.. The seafood was extremely fresh... I guess that was due to the restaurant being on the Chesapeake Bay.. It was a bit pricey... but as I'm not paying for anything else this week in the way of food, I thought I could splurge just a bit.

I know I haven't been sharing a whole lot on this blog... but it's just as well... I feel the difference.. My outlook and attitude are changing for the positive.. if not quickly.. then at enough of a rate where I feel comfortable about it. Fast changes are very uncomfortable to most people... and many times we subconsciously try to resist those types of changes. I have a lot laid out in my life... I'm even attending church on a regular basis.. though I'm missing it today due to not being home. I am trying to improve myself... not necessarily change who I am.. but to bring out the best parts of who that is.. and concentrate on those parts... I would strongly advise anyone who isn't actually happy.. to try it.. it does work.

Not In My Lifetime.

It's 1:15 am.. I just got back from my niece's wedding.. and it was.. different .. not what I was used to.. but nice all the same..  I only have this to say about the reception... WTF!!! l guess I should give a bit of background information... my spouse wandered off doing her own thing.. as I prefer it that way... so when I happen to come into close proximity of her by accident.. she motions me over.. and has been talking to the head of the catering company... they have been talking for awhile.. and in a short period of time.. they have been getting to know each other a bit..   as I approach.. this woman.. who's name is the same as my spouse.. is saying.. "I just seem to know him.. he looks like John.. somebody"  My spouse then starts with a sales pitch of how great of a guy I am.. and what I do teaching computers.. and this woman starts striking up a conversation with me in front of my spouse.. she even talks about how handsome I am...   she mentions that she i...

Something I Have Learned Well.

It's odd how we interact with others on so many levels... one would assume by my wide range of references that I have a large assortment of friends.. In all actuality, the people in my circle of friends could be counted on my hands.. and close friends... well..  easily on one hand. I'm not what I would consider a social butterfly... but to be honest.. I sometimes like crowds.. I enjoy having groups of people around me.. I don't stick out like a sore thumb.. and sometimes getting lost in the rest of the world... isn't such a bad thing. How often do you go and "people watch" ....and then think about those people once you're gone... not very often, I'm guessing.. not unless one did something completely out of the ordinary.  I just like having the feeling that I'm normal.. an ordinary person... I just sat here in this chair for most of the weekend.. not really accomplishing anything.. nothing constructive by any means... I feel as though maybe I'm...

I'm Looking Forward To A New Year.

Been through ice the last few days... lots of time to take off between now and the end of the year... but I will get it in. I tend to not worry about much of anything lately. There's no need.. life is perfect... or at least headed in a perfect direction. I am still irritated at my boss and don't feel that I can truly talk to her without wanting to slap some sense into her... and I'm not a violent person... I don't like the feelings she provokes in me. I haven't felt those feelings before. I would never contemplate seriously hurting anyone on purpose... but with her.. I just want answers... show me WHY you would do such a thing. Not a whole lot I can do about it now.. I will just ride it out until I can go elsewhere... it won't be much longer anyway. I got new glasses yesterday. They are the first plastic frames I've had in 30+ years... black and simple. I actually am growing to like them in a hurry. I spent my time driving to and from the city on the phone...
